Comment:
If we get up to 3290, I will add another 25%. I will assume a bit more risk on this trade due to the High Probability setup.

Closing another 25% of my trade here at 3229. Sweet! Up 140% on trade overall. Now riding a risk free trade no matter what happens.
Trade active:
Closing another 25% of my trade here at 3229.50. Sweet! Up 190% now on trade overall. Those Call Credit Spreads evaporated! Love that theta decay. :)
Looks like we may have some support down here at the 3230 Level. If 3230 breaks fast this could fall to 3200 before the end of the day.
Trade closed manually:
Closing out my final portion of this trade. Ended up with over 220% on this trade. We may see another huge down day on Monday. So I bought a few SPY Feb 07 317 Puts as a new trade. Have a great weekend all!!
